This seems more like a backburn since it is following the road and the video was uploaded.

Exactly. I'm not even a firefighter and I know this is a legit tactic to fight forest fires.

So theae things are range limited...

Saw a post about cell nets...

Hmmmm, somebody is gonna get fucked with a flamethrower in hell.

If its inaccessible by foot for controlled fire, how exactly is someone going to keep it from spreading?

25577067? ago

There's a road. It's quicker and generally safer to light from the air. They may be wanting to keep personnel off that road in case there's a bad wind shift.

This is war.

That's called a helitorch. It's firing napalm mixed from gas using a gelling agent like Flash21. This type of aerial ignition is one of the most efficient ways to implement large-scale prescribed fires. This is probably footage of firefighters lighting a back-burn along that road to create a wide swath of defensible "black" or burned are. They'll try to stop the fire along that road.

Could very easily be used for arson too, though.

Can also mix gas and styrofoam

Gas and Tide works well, too.

Our military grade fire bombs are JP-5 and styrofoam based pellets.

Works better than napalm, too.

that just sounds like pure horror...

I still have a copy on a 8.5 inch floppy connected to an Apple IIe. In a closet. I have two shoeboxes full of floppies from the 1985-1989 with tons of stuff from BBSes.
